Thank you very much!

[@principedelapaz3593]

JUST WAAAW💀💀

[@rixlainepictures8975]

very good job, I have seen a very similar scene (layout, light, assetes...) in the movie T34. I guess it was your work or I was wrong? And I want to know if you use projection or render all scene in blender?

[@abrarahmedcgi]

I use projection only for the background sky. Everything else is 3D

[@AkashYadav-cw9rw]

how to be this good...right now i am trying to improve my modelling skills.. any tips how to better fast. plz..

[@FunnyAmped]

This is soo cool, one of the best showreels I've seen. Keep up the work bro. Do you work in studio btw?

[@abrarahmedcgi]

Thank you very much! I do have a day job but not in a vfx studio.

[@aymenLOL2007]

How long did it take for render?

[@FelipeSotoSCel]

que son esas capas del segundo 00:26 ??

[@adityabhattacharaya4044]

This is brilliant Abrar. Would love to work with you sometime in future!

[@abrarahmedcgi]

That will be fun for sure!

[@cg.man_aka_kevin]

How did you render a lot's of tree with grea details and paralax? Are you rendering in really high specs, or using 2D plane PBR technique, or impostors technique?

[@abrarahmedcgi]

Its all 3D meshes. But you need to be efficient with memory usage. And use Instances as much as possible!

[@cg.man_aka_kevin]

@@abrarahmedcgi Damn... I knew it! But, it's become more awesome in 4K! 🔥🔥🔥

[@someone_7233]

I need to pick up blender again 😢 I was learning the basics but didnt do that well and I was disappointed so I dropped it three years ago It is the art of land scaping that made me want to learn blender in the first place Your work is inspiring sister ❤ I wonder if your skill is self taught or you learned it in a school?

[@moviewsog]

Do it again I just started again this time I started with sushi instead of Donut, tutorial from Polygon. Once you do it the feeling of accomplishment helped me to continue

[@abrarahmedcgi]

Thank you very much for the kind words.

[@EasypediaTech]

Awesome work. How long did it take to render a single frame of the scenes above? Could you please tell me?

[@abrarahmedcgi]

5-20 mins a frame

[@tekyfilms]

I am desperate to be like that .

[@abrarahmedcgi]

Keep going!

[@doubledeecreator2181]

As a beginner in this art, I gotta ask how do you achieve such a clean reader without noise it's frustrating

[@abrarahmedcgi]

Hey, increasing the sample count for this type of scene is the only way I found to get clean renders

[@doubledeecreator2181]

@@abrarahmedcgi yea figured as much But for someone like me with not so powerful of a PC relying on increased sample counts is a nightmare

[@doubledeecreator2181]

Do you Have a rough estimate of what you think is the recommended Sample Count and Noise Threshold for a scene like this

[@Visokovart]

What did you use for water in first shot? Please give right steps.

[@abrarahmedcgi]

I don't remember exactly I think I used blenders wave texture for the ripple effect. It was just a principle BSDF with 0 roughness and transmission.

[@sreevfxartist]

Beautiful work... Sir kindly mention your PC Configuration which used for this render.. And how much time you took to render this.. Thanking you..

[@podilapuvamsi7611]

Bro we are teenagers, and I wrote a superhero horror thriller story, this is my dream but we don't have money for vfx can you please help me, this will means a lot for me🥺 hope you will say ok! I have asked so many youtubers of our language but they said no.😔😔😔

[@wb2463]

Listen, if it's actually your dream to make a superhero film you should learn VFX yourself; that's what the great filmmakers did when they were kids, because they were passionate and wouldn't let anything stop them. Don't come here begging a guy who is a professional to do tens of thousands of pounds worth of work for you for free; you may as well go to a builder and say "I have dream of living in a mansion and I made some blueprints but I don't have the money to build it, so could you build it for me please" he's never going to say yes, and rightly so.

[@podilapuvamsi7611]

[@podilapuvamsi7611]

@@wb2463 Thanks for the reply brother🙏,And I'm sorry 😔.

[@wb2463]

@@podilapuvamsi7611 Hey, no worries, I know how it feels. My friends and I made a short movie when we were teenagers and we wanted to have this scene with a helicopter in, so I did the VFX myself; and you know what, it didn't look amazing, but it was something I made myself and put my passion and time into, and that means more than it being Hollywood-level VFX. So don't be sorry, be proactive. Don't worry about making something perfect, that's not going to happen, just make *something* coz that's how everyone starts. Also, learning VFX is fun and it can be a very useful and valuable skill, so go do it and good luck.
